| [IsraelTimes] Military says suspect hurled grenade, opened fire with makeshift gun at forces on road near Neve Tzuf settlement, causing no injuries An armed Paleostinian man was rubbed out by Israeli troops in the central West Bank on Monday morning, the military said. According to the Israel Defense Forces, troops of the Kfir Brigade’s 94th "Duchifat" Battalion identified a suspicious vehicle on Route 450, close to the Paleostinian village of Deir Nidham and the Israeli settlement of Neve Tzuf, also known as Halamish. The IDF said that as troops approached the vehicle to question him, the Paleostinian man got out of his car, hurled a grenade and shot up troops with a makeshift "Carlo" submachine gun. The soldiers "returned fire and neutralized him," the IDF said, adding that no Israeli soldiers were hurt in the attack. Footage from the scene showed the Paleostinian suspect lying on the ground with the makeshift firearm, next to a white Nissan car without license plates. The Paleostinian Authority health ministry said it was informed of the man’s death, indicating his body was held by Israeli authorities. He was named as 33-year-old Bilal Qadah. |
